    Summary

    Being in close quarters with Stede after everything — the heartbreak and the crying and the sobbing and the throwing up from sobbing and the falling asleep sobbing and the waking up sobbing… and then the reconciliation, all of it — is actually pretty fuckin’ nice. Everything feels perfect even when it isn’t. The scarcity of food makes everything taste even better, the straw mattress is a nightmare but it feels like a dream when he’s lying next to Stede. Manual labor feels exciting — he’s fallen off the roof twice. Stede has fallen off more. Ed caught him once, and the combined weight of them and the force of the fall sprained both of Ed’s ankles.

    Ed loves it, loves him.

    Summary

    “I wanna stay,” he slurs, voice just on the cusp of unintelligible. His grip on Stede’s other hand tightens, and his eyes swirl wildly. “I don’t wanna go back, don’t let me go back, Stede–”

    “Go back? Ed, what do you mean?”

    “Don’t wanna…I wanna stay. Please. Lemme stay. Keep me…here, keep me–jus’ keep me, ‘kay?”

    (OR: After the gravy basket, Ed is terrified of falling asleep. It's a fear that stays close by in the weeks that follow. A series of missing scenes from S2, BIG TIME angst with a happy, smutty ending. Because Ed deserves to be happy)

    Summary

    "Look, first of all, fucknut–" Stede blinks a bit, "If I was going to stab you, I would just use the fucking knife." Blackbeard holds it up and wiggles it condescendingly, like, see.

    Summary

    “All those fucking dates. You’re telling me you picked all those dates when you could’ve set me up with the man of my dreams.”

    Archie looks at Ed. Looks at Stede. Back at Ed. Back at Stede. “Him? Stede? Stede. Like, that guy Stede?”

    (or: five times Archie set Ed up on a date and one time she didn't)
